I did not think this post would generate so much feedback. Well I built another kernel without SMP and the temp dropped so I am beginning to see this may be SMP related possibly. Later tonight I am going to attach a mechanical gauge to the CPU's to verify the temperatures. I failed to mention we have another (identical) board and it reports the same thing so until I verify the temp the only other possibility is a bug in the temp IC *but* the bios reports the same thing as lmmon so that is doubtful. > -- Ted Sikora Jtl Development Group tsikora@powerusersbbs.com http://powerusersbbs.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
